Domaine Clusel-Roch: The Quintessence of Côte Rôtie's 'Grandes Places'

The CLUSEL ROCH COTE ROTIE LES GRANDES PLACES RED comes from one of the most revered single vineyards in the Verenay commune. Planted with ancient 'Sérine' Syrah vines, this cuvée offers an unparalleled depth and mineral complexity, a true testament to its ferrous schist slopes.

Sommelier's Assessment

This wine is a marvel of balance, showcasing the raw power of the Northern Rhône Syrah while retaining remarkable finesse. Certified Organic, it is a wine for the cellar and the grandest of tables.

• Visual: Saturated ruby/garnet.
• Aromatics: Hugely perfumed, with dark fruit, floral (violet), and spice scents. Notes of smoked meat, olive tapenade, and a distinct mineral scrub line the expansive nose.
• Mouthfeel: Densely packed yet wonderfully lithe and lively. Palate-staining dark fruit flavours are framed by fine, well-judged tannins. A powerful, seamless, and profound expression.

Serving Suggestion

A wine of this stature requires a grand pairing. Allow it to breathe for an hour before serving. Optimum drinking window is typically 8-20 years after vintage.

• Pairing: Classic Beef Wellington with a red wine reduction, Roast Venison Loin, Game Pie, Mature Stilton or Cheddar.
